I am unable to find any information on this... maybe just unlucky couple of last runs but out of 5-6 runs the only thing that dropped was personal effects.... Just curious! -SM

I'm sure others will disagree with me but I believe CCP has been doing stealth changes to Exploration for quite a while now. They probably only tell us maybe 1/3rd of what they do.

As for loot drops, they're constantly messing with the tables.

Anyway, at least you got OPE's which is better than nothing, right ?

Source It's generally not profitable to purchase maze bookmarks from people, and its more time effective to afk run anoms until an escalation spawns.

You're reading that wrong. The loot drop change was to Data and Relic sites, not DED plexes. The only thing they've done to combat exploration sites is increase the expedition spawn rate, lower the expedition distance rate (now at 2-10 jumps) and include some 'helper' pop ups in a few anomalies and non-rated combat exploration sites.

I haven't spent much time in guristas space since last year, but in angel, serpentis and blood raider space null, sec DED plexes are dropping (and not dropping) loot the same as always (it's feast or famine, I got no less than 3 Bhaalgorn BPCs last nighr from 2 separate plexes, that has NEVER happened to me before).

There is not one scrap of evidence that CCP is fiddling with anything. Rather, some folks have a hard time dealing with the inconstant nature of randomly generated rewards.
